I don't know about you, but my fingers get cold with they're in regular gloves, and stay warm in mittens. But it's harder for me to grab stuff with mittens because my fingers are constricted.

My solution? I made custom mittens that were two fingers, instead of one big pocket for my fingers.

Here's how you do it:

1) Take a mitten, fingerless glove, or glove pattern you already have, and after you knit or crochet the palm (so it's a fingerless glove) then mark the two stitches in the center, between your middle and ring fingers.

2) Then just finish the fingers as you would any mitten, only making two fingers instead of one big one. That part you marked is where the two fingers separate.

My New Years Resolution is to design a pattern a month to post for free on my blog.

My internet is down (hurray for coffee shops' free internet so that I can make this blog post), but we're getting it fixed tomorrow, so I can only do a little blurb of my future plans of a pattern a month.

This month is my birthday month, and so, I'm going to make two patterns for this month, as my gift to you!
